p.s.
After rebuying a home in our "old neighborhood" where 4 months earlier we had sold our children's "childhood home".....I took care of my mom here for six years in our home and learned what "The Long Goodbye" is all about, seeing an elder slowly, ever so slowly decline with Alzheimers. When I could not bathe her at home anymore, we put her in a close by skilled nursing facility.....just a few minutes away, where she existed for another 18 months, passing at age 91. It's a blessing to help them, but you don't realize it fully until the end. We've been to some truly lovely places in Florida and just keep weighing all the pros and cons. Hibernating during a New England winter vs. hibernating during a Florida summer. Thanks again.........for listening.
